• Scanmarker Software

To open the Scanmarker application, either double-click the Scanmarker icon on your

desktop or choose Scanmarker from your program files (Do the following steps :

“Start menu” -> “All Programs” -> “Topscan program group” -> Scanmarker program).

A small Scanmarker icon will appear in the Windows system tray (on the bottom right-

hand-corner of the screen) indicating that Scanmarker application is running in the

background.

Click the Scanmarker icon on the taskbar to view the application’s settings menu.

Scanmarker offers two primary scan Modes: “Scan as text" mode, which is selected by

default and transfers printed texts to an application that uses editable texts, and "Text as

Image" mode, which allows you to capture text as images. “Text as Image” mode is

useful for scanning non-Latin characters, unique text-types, and handwriting.

The "Image Collector" allows you to scan any language as images into Scanmarker's

own editor, store them in a single place and access them at a later stage. You can use

the “Image Collector” utility as an alternative to other applications such as Microsoft

Word or PowerPoint or other programs that support displaying images.

Scan as text mode

Scanmarker lets you scan lines of text into any application that is text editable. To scan

text into an application such as Microsoft Word, simply open the application and start

scanning. To use Scanmarker with multiple applications, you can toggle between the

applications by clicking their respective icons on the taskbar. Please make sure the

cursor is placed at the right place on the application you are scanning to.

When Scanmarker loads, the "Scan as text" scanning mode is selected by default.
